The world in Xenoblade Chronicles X is huge. However, there are several ways that navigation can be made easier in the game.

We’ve already seen elements like the Hopper Camera and Navigation Ball. On the Xenoblade Chronicles X Twitter account, director Koh Kojima mentioned that there’s also an auto-run feature as well as skip travel.

He said:

It appears that the Hopper Camera and Navigation Ball have been well received. For straight movement, there’s an auto-run feature and of course, there’s also the skip travel. As a developer, however, I feel conflicted because I want you to travel leisurely and enjoy the various views and the enemy placement…This is a tricky point, isn’t it.

This information comes from Nintendo UK’s director of marketing Shelly Pearce:

“We’re really pleased with how Majora’s Mask 3D and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate have performed. Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate has significantly outperformed its predecessor and The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D has debuted at the top spot in the individual format chart. We’ve also seen a strong start for the New 3DS and we’re looking forward to building this momentum.”

MCV notes that the launch of New 3DS caused the UK hardware market to rise 57 per cent week-on-week.

Update: Translation is below:

We’ll introduce some of the weapons you can use in battle.
This is called the “Splashooter”.
The strength, range, and firing-rate are well balanced and useful in a variety of situations.
It’s easy to use for just about everyone; you might even call it the standard weapon.

We’ll update this post with a translation a little later on. Stay tuned!
